You need to add a service and set #StartAtBoot to true. Note that in order to start an activity you need to do more work: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/draw-on-top-of-other-apps-permission.90513/#content

i don´t see you have added a NEW Service which runs at boot. You should NOT set startatboot to the starter-service!

Starter Service - Consistent & Single Entry Point

One of the challenges that developers of any non-small Android app need to deal with, is the multiple possible entry points. During development in almost all cases the application will start from the Main activity. Many programs start with code similar to: Sub Activity_Create (FirstTime As...

The starter service should never be explicitly started. This means that if you want to start a service at boot then add a different service.
